As of this writing, I've been living with one of these at my kitchen sink, and another similar one with a handle on the side (Ladylux L2) at my laundry room sink, for for almost a year now. It's called a Ladylux, but if you type that into a search engine, you get something else. Why didn't they name it something different??
Pros: I like the modern look, high clearance means I can fit my biggest stock pot underneath, the ease of being able to use a part of my hand/arm to turn it on/off and the temperature setting stays where I last left it. No need for batteries. Seems to be well made.
Cons: The old school hose weight gets stuck/bumps the angle stops/drain line, the laminar flow from the non aerated spout means that EVERY TIME I use it, it splashes EVERYWHERE and the flow control is a joke with its low pressure.
I've since fixed the hose weight issue by purchasing a large spring thingy that looks like a skinny slinky where the pull out hose runs inside of it under the sink. It doesn't quite have the return like a heavy weight does, but it is way better than all that bumping and clanging under the sink. For as much as this faucet costs, and since Grohe makes the spring thingy, it should have been included. I chose to not install the supply lines with the flow reducers at the angle stops, and the pressure still is weak, at best. You get high volume but low pressure at around 1 GPM at house pressure of 85 PSI.
The splashing all over the place is almost to the point that I am thinking of replacing this faucet. It is pretty ridiculous how much it splashes.. William. Anthem, AZ. 2021-08-22 19:45:22
